Welcome to The Sage & Soul Collective
A sanctuary for women ready to rest, reconnect, and rise. This is your permission slip to pause: to breathe deeply, turn inward, and remember who you are beneath the noise of everyday life.

Why We Created This Space
We saw women running on empty, giving endlessly to everyone but themselves. The Sage & Soul Collective was born from a deep knowing: women heal faster, grow bolder, and shine brighter in community.
Our Mission
The Sage & Soul Collective is a wellness community devoted to reflection, connection, and personal renewal. We curate meaningful experiences that bring people together in beautiful spaces to pause, reconnect with their inner wisdom, and explore the deeper questions of life.
Our Promise
No hustle culture. No perfect poses. No performing. Just real women, honest conversations, and experiences that create lasting transformation and authentic community, rooted in nature and held in love.
Offerings
From weekend retreats nestled in nature to intimate wellness workshops, everything we create is designed for real women living real lives.
Immersive Retreats
Multi-day gatherings in stunning natural settings where deep healing, genuine connection, and belly-laughing fun all live under the same roof.
Wellness Workshops
Breathwork, journaling, herbal medicine, nourishing nutrition, and mindfulness: these are all woven together into transformative half-day and full-day experiences.
Soulful Community
Sacred circles, sister dinners, moon gatherings, and online community, because the magic does not stop when the retreat ends.

Community & Sisterhood
You Were Never Meant to Do This Alone
The women who come to Sage & Soul arrive as strangers and leave as sisters. There is something ancient and powerful about women gathering: sharing stories, holding space, and witnessing each other's becoming.
Real & Unfiltered
We don't do polished or performative; we choose honest and real. Here, you are invited to let your guard down and exist in your truth.
All Are Welcome
Every age, every background, every body. If you identify as a woman and are seeking connection, you belong here.
Community Beyond Retreats
Our online sisterhood keeps the fire burning, with check-ins, resources, and monthly virtual gatherings.
Our Philosophy
Wellness That Honors the Whole Woman
We don't believe in quick fixes or one-size-fits-all healing. Our approach is holistic, intuitive, and deeply human, honoring every layer of who you are.
True wellness isn't a destination; it's a way of moving through the world. We help you build practices that travel home with you long after the retreat ends.
Real Stories
Words From Our Women
These aren't before-and-after transformations. They're quiet, profound, life-shifting moments, shared by women who showed up for themselves and found something they weren't even sure they were looking for.
"I came completely depleted and left feeling like myself again for the first time in years. The combination of yoga, honest conversation, and being in nature healed something in me I didn't know was broken."
Maya R., attended a pilot retreat
"I was skeptical: I'm not really a 'retreat person.' But within the first few hours I felt held by the group and the facilitators in a way that was completely unexpected. I've already signed up for the next one."
Danielle K., wellness workshop attendee
"The Sage & Soul community gave me permission to slow down and actually feel things. I laughed until I cried, and then cried until I laughed. That is the magic of it."
Priya S., community member
The Human Behind the Collective
Meet the Founder & Facilitators
The Sage & Soul Collective was founded by a woman who has walked her own healing journey, moving through burnout, loss, reinvention, and joy. She created the space she wished had existed for herself.
Our Approach to Facilitation
Every facilitator in our collective is chosen not just for their credentials, but for their warmth, authenticity, and lived experience. We hold space with both skill and soul.
  • Certified yoga instructors & breathwork guides
  • Wellness warriors & experienced givers of joy
  • Community weavers & circle holders
We're Just Getting Started
As a brand new collective, we are building something beautiful from the ground up, approaching our work with intention, love, and a whole lot of heart. We'd be honored to have you with us from the very beginning.
Our Full Story
How Sage & Soul Came to Be
The Sage & Soul Collective wasn't born from a business plan. It was born from a life that unraveled and the strength it took to rebuild it.
For 17 years, Jody worked in healthcare, pushing, striving, and climbing her way from the bottom to the top. She built a career, created stability, and did what so many of us are taught to do: keep going, keep achieving, keep proving. Until one day, it was all gone. Everything she had worked for was pulled out from underneath her.
So she started over.
From the bottom again, she rebuilt her life, step by step. In the middle of that rebuilding, she purchased a salon and spa, believing that was the path to something more meaningful. Her vision was to transform it into a space of connection, into a wellness centered environment that offered more than just services, something deeper, something more human.
But that path did not fully align.
At the same time, Jody was navigating something far more personal. An eight year toxic and abusive relationship that slowly disconnected her from herself. It took immense courage to walk away, to choose herself, and to begin again in a completely different way.
And in truth, the seeds of Sage & Soul had already been planted.
For the past seven years, Jody has been on a deeply personal journey of healing and self discovery. Through yoga, retreats, and immersive experiences around the world including Bali, Italy, Costa Rica, Joshua Tree, Florida, and throughout Michigan, she sought something she could not quite name at the time, but deeply needed.
She explored breathwork, meditation, sound healing, natural medicines, and sat with incredible teachers and leaders who helped her see herself more clearly. Through these experiences, she did not just learn practices, she learned herself.
She learned that healing is not linear.
That strength is not found in pushing harder, but in softening.
That real connection can change everything.
And perhaps most importantly, she realized that the spaces she was searching for, spaces that felt real, supportive, deeply human, and rooted in authentic connection, were rare.
So she created one.
The Sage & Soul Collective is the result of everything she has lived through: the loss, the rebuilding, the searching, the healing, and the choosing of herself, again and again.
It is a space designed for women to pause. To reflect. To reconnect with who they are beneath the noise of everyday life. To be supported in community, not judged. To feel seen, not fixed.
This is not about perfection.
It is about honesty.
It is about coming back to yourself.
We invite you to step into that space with us and find your way home.
